Quebec sovereigntists see fundamental rift with Alberta separatists - The Globe and Mail

Open this photo in gallery:Alberta separatists gather at the Alberta Legislature in Edmonton for a protest organized by the Alberta Prosperity Project, Aug. 29. Amanda May Erickson/The Canadian PressWith just days before Alberta’s vote on an independence referendum, longtime Quebec sovereigntists are distancing themselves from the western province’s separatists. Question 10 of 10 on Monday’s referendum ballot asks whether Alberta should remain in Canada or if the government should start the legal process to hold a subsequent, binding referendum on separation. Advance polls opened Tuesday and run until Saturday. Quebecers may have a sense of déjà vu after voting on a similar question in 1980, when René Lévesque’s Parti Québécois asked whether the province should begin negotiations to leave Confederation. Nearly 60 per cent of Quebec voters were against Lévesque’s proposal. A second referendum followed in 1995, narrowly won by the “No” side. But ardent sovereigntists see profound differences in the two movements.

Judge shutters Saskatoon confectionary due to overdoses, police calls - CBC

Mohammad Akhtar spends his days watching over the store he bought in the Pleasant Hill neighbourhood four years ago. But he can no longer legally enter the property, a converted house with a confectionary/grocery store on the first floor and a space where Akhtar was living on the second floor of the structure that was originally built in 1912. Akhtar said in an interview this week that he has been living with friends since Court of King's Bench Justice Ron Mills granted a community safety order to close the store for 90 days under Saskatchewan's Safer Communities and Neighbourhoods (SCAN) Act. The order cites an "astonishing" level of activity at the property this year, including 95 police calls, 38 of which involved drug overdoses. Akhtar admitted he has struggled to control the activity on his property, but flatly denied the suggestion in the order that he is somehow involved in the illegal drug trade. "I'm seriously very upset [about] what to do, how to handle them, again, because they cannot be controlled," Akhtar said of the people who frequent his property, 7 Days Confectionery & Grocery on the 1500 block of 20th Street West.
